Understand the True Reason for Success or Failure
Ibn Al-Qayyim may Allah have mercy upon him said…
Those who have knowledge concerning Allah have agreed…
Success is that Allah not entrust you to yourself and
failure is that He forsakes you to yourself.
445/1 مدارج السالكين
The best of mankind Muhammad ibn Abdullah صلى
الله عليه وسلم said…
يَاحَـيُّ
يَا قَـيُّـوْمُ ، بِـرَحْمَـتِكَ أَسْتَـغِـيْثُ ، أَصْلِـحْ لِي شَـأْ نِـيْ كُلَّـهُ
، وَلَا تَكِلْـنِيْ إِ لَى نَفْـسِيْ طَـرْفَةَ عَـيْنٍ
O Ever-living, O Self-Subsisting and Supporter of all, in
Your Mercy I seek relief. Rectify my affairs, all of them, and do not entrust
me to myself even for the blink of an eye.
Collected in Sahih At Targeeb 661
